More Mortal Kombat, more fatalities! If you played 9 and X like I have, you definitely will enjoy this game. While the DLC was overpriced when it came out - I think if you can get it with the game on a sale it is more than 100% worth it. The story was a joy to go through and really sets up a grand scale, epic adventure (two if you get the DLC).
No spoilers, or at least nothing concrete. The beauty to TLOU Part 2 is the fact that it knows what your feeling. The decisions made for the story and how brutal the adventure is symbolizes the anger the game wants you to feel off and on. Many of the story choices, while I may disagree with, were masterfully done and really showcased to me that this game was intelligently designed off emotion. Many may disagree, but I think this game is a worthy successor to Part 1 and I'm so excited to see how it's adapted for the HBO show.

One of my favorite Kirby games of all time! So much charm, so much joy, and honestly was just a blast to replay. If you want to play a Kirby game that I feel like is an underrated gem nowadays, please give this a shot! My main complaint was that the main story was just a tad bit short.
2016
Probably one of my favorite fighting games of all time and is definitely worth purchasing on sale. The story was rather unique in its focus on family, its fatalities are absolute brutal, and I could help but get hyped every time fights dragged into a third round!
What an absolute journey. I played the remastered version about 10 years ago and I am so happy to have played through the remake. If you were debating if it's worth it - I'd say give the game a shot, especially if it's on sale. The story of this game deserves all the praise it's been giving and I'll happily come back to experience this every several years. The only knock I'll give it is that I found the traversal to be a bit boring, which I didn't experience as much the first time I played it.
I absolutely loved the villains and story in this game. Same feelings as the prior two - although this game I had ran into numerous glitches. Some of them were so bad that I needed to restart a checkpoint a few times - so I had to knock a point away from it. Perfect game to cap a trilogy (for now - definitely more to come).
Same feelings as the prior game - just felt the story didn't hit the same highs as the first one. Absolutely loved this and felt the length was perfect as an in-between title.
In my opinion, this game is one of the best video games of all time. The story is absolutely phenomenal from start to finish - choked up at the end with how impactful it was. There's a lot of fun to be had and I will happily play this game again in a few years prior to Spider-Man 3. If you haven't played this and like Spider-Man at all, please give this a shot! One of my favorite Spider-Man stories - I prefer this over the most recent movies (minus Into the Spider-verse, that's perfect in my eyes). This game is also perfect to play on a handheld - I was in shock how amazing it felt and looked on the ROG Ally. Probably one of the greatest handheld experiences I ever had!

This was actually my first time playing this game! Incredibly charming, lots of fun, and had my attention from start to finish. There were actually a few boss fights that gave me more of a challenge than what I was expecting. As someone who loves the Paper Mario series, I highly recommend you give this a shot!

What an absolute blast to play! I absolutely enjoyed the main storyline and had so much fun playing the Crimson Fleet faction quest line! The only gripes I have are with the ending/NG+. I highly recommend any RPG fan should play it and I can't wait to see what the mods are like! Hopefully they expand more quest lines.
I wish NG+ had more differences in the multiverse aspect. It didn't change as much as I wanted and I wanted crazier things to happen, like a version of me being the leader of the Crimson Fleet. I felt the ending of the Crimson Fleet should of had more to destroy more of the UC but I had fun for what it was. Also didn't feel like my actions had as many consequences as they should of - like when I got arrested by the Vigilance for killing people, I wiped out the lieutenant and the crew. How did they seem unaffected in Legacy's End seems really confusing.

I played this game when I was younger on Xbox 360, but only in bursts at a friend's house. Now I finally got to play the story mode all the way through and had a ton of fun. I found the experience to be extremely enjoyable and would highly recommend it to any fighting game fans! I also felt like the PSVita version did not hold back the experience in any way - honestly playing it on the go with a device from that era of gaming was so much fun!
Honestly, have three different opinions on this game all at once:
1) The campaign wasn't that great and the ending was terrible in my opinion. The intro mission got me hyped, but I hated the new open combat missions structure and it killed my experience. Made me feel like I was playing DMZ/Warzone, which I don't want in the campaigns.
2) The multiplayer is a blast - I absolutely love the Modern Warfare 2 (2009) maps and the gameplay feels rather nice. It is extremely enjoyable and the reason I keep playing.
3) Zombies is....okay. Not really vibing with it and would rather play something round based.
Originally had a score of 7/10 but dropping it down 2 points for one of the campaign missions bugging out, causing my PS5 to crash repeatedly and forcing me to start all over again. I almost gave up on it - but that was a few hours of agony try to fix things (I wiped the game from my SSD multiple times for example).

Absolutely loved this game. I felt like the quest line was intriguing and the open world aspects just absolutely incredible. I was also amazed by the amount of content in the game as well as (spoiler warning):
The game had one of the toughest trainer battles ever. Volo is up there with Cynthia in the franchise for me. Seriously - the battle and then going into TWO forms of Giratina with no rest was sooo difficult. Took me a couple of hours to eventually win it.
Also caught most of the legendaries minus Enamorus and Arceus. Enamorus just kept consistently made itself so difficult to catch, so I ended up giving up.
If you like Pokemon at all, it's definitely worth playing.

This is definitely a comfort food type of game for me. I played the first world probably a decade+ ago, but decided to give this a shot on my Nintendo 2DS XL. The gameplay was very enjoyable, some of the later game stages were legitimately hard and it got me through tons of traveling at airports and near bed times. The music was fabulous, the level design was excellent - all around, a very enjoyable game. If you're a fan of platformers, I think you should give this a shot! The only con is that the graphics are a bit dated - but they definitely don't hurt down the enjoyment.

This game deserves to be a 9/10! The graphics, the storyline, the characters - everything stood out to me as phenomenal. I never played the Dead Space series before and almost never play horror games. Dead Space just was so unique - catering to my love of Sci-fi and really keeping me on a rollercoaster ride all the way through to the end. I ended up not giving this a 9/10 because of the PC performance - the microstutter that I experienced was really jarring at times. During the heat of a battle against the Necromorphs, it was really annoying getting paused for a split second repeatedly and having my action be thrown off. EA - please patch this game!
